I&#8217;m really hoping that you&#8217;re beginning to do some of these &#8220;habits&#8221; to nurture your &#8220;inner artist child&#8221; and find your path to creative recovery. It&#8217;s a long and arduous journey. The abuse to our inner child was long in the making. We&#8217;re not going to fully heal over night. So, don&#8217;t just think you can give up on these habits. They are life long.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve truly been doing these habits and have no sense of recovery, I&#8217;d really like to know. For those who\u00a0have been doing these weekly habits, the exercises, the tasks, tell me how you\u2019re doing. Answer the questions below in the comment section:<\/p>\n<p><em>1. How many days this week <\/em>(since last Wednesday)<em> did you do your morning pages? Regarding your U-turns, have you allowed yourself a shift toward compassion, at least on the page?<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>2.\u00a0 Did you do your artist date this week? Have you kept the emphasis on fun? What did you do? How did it feel?<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>3.\u00a0 Did you experience any synchronicity this week? What was it?<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>4.\u00a0 Were there any other issues this week that you consider significant for your recovery?
